How to Make Dave's Sloppy Joes
- Finely chop the onion, green bell pepper, and mince the garlic.
- In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato paste, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, onion powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper (if using), and salt.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and the flavors have melded.
- Serve the sloppy joe mixture on toasted hamburger buns or slider rolls. Add your favorite chips for a complete meal!
